Kernel text KASLR is separated into physical address and virtual
address randomization. And for virtual address randomization, we
only randomiza to get an offset between 16M and KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE.
So the initial value of 'virt_addr' should be LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR,
but not the original kernel loading address 'output'.

The bug will cause kernel boot failure if kernel is loaded at a different
position than the address, 16M, which is decided at compiled time.
Kexec/kdump is such practical case.

To fix it, just assign LOAD_PHYSICAL_ADDR to virt_addr as initial
value.

For kernel text KASLR, the virtual address is confined to area of 1G,
[0xffffffff80000000, 0xffffffffc0000000). For the implemenataion of
virtual address randomization, we only randomize to get an offset
between 16M and 1G, then add this offset to the starting address,
0xffffffff80000000. Here 16M is the offset which is decided at linking
stage. So the amount of the local variable 'virt_addr' which respresents
the offset plus the kernel output size can not exceed KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE.

Add a debug check for the offset. If out of bounds, print error
message and hang there.

Should not init a NULL box. It will cause system crash.
The issue looks like caused by a typo.

This was not noticed because there is no NULL box. Also, for most

<title>x86/mm/hotplug: Fix BUG_ON() after hot-remove by not freeing PUD</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit:

  af2cf278ef4f ("x86/mm/hotplug: Don't remove PGD entries in remove_pagetable()")

we no longer free PUDs so that we do not have to synchronize
all PGDs on hot-remove/vfree().

But the new 5-level page table patchset reverted that for 4-level
page tables, in the following commit:

  f2a6a7050109: ("x86: Convert the rest of the code to support p4d_t")

This patch restores the damage and disables free_pud() if we are in the
4-level page table case, thus avoiding BUG_ON() after hot-remove.

Pull perf fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Three fixlets for perf:

   - Return the proper error code if aux buffers for a event are not
     supported.

   - Calculate the probe offset for inlined functions correctly

   - Update the Skylake DTLB load/store miss event so it can count 1G
     TLB entries as well"

* 'perf-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  perf probe: Fix probe definition for inlined functions
  perf/x86/intel: Add 1G DTLB load/store miss support for SKL
  perf/aux: Correct return code of rb_alloc_aux() if !has_aux(ev)
